  1. I have the mini lp I purchased a few years ago. That's good enough me.
  2. I didn't read the excerpt but I will take a look.
  3. I will stick with the RVG.
  4. Sounds interesting. Like Paul, I never downloaded the iTunes material so this appears a possibility.
  5. If you're looking for a tremendous book to read on the Civil War, I recommend this one. **** Just finished this. A fantastic book, both about Homer's Odyssey and the author's relationship with his father, who takes his class on the Odyssey.
  6. A shame. RIP Bruce.
  7. Article in today’s New York Times. https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/12/06/arts/music/qwest-tv-quincy-jones-jazz-video.html
  8. Mr. Bennet is probably not too different from many of us, who want a little peace and quiet from the commotion in his house and probably couldn’t say no to his wife, who is truly annoying. Mrs Bennet probably is not fond of Elizabeth because she has more of an ambition than simply getting married.
  9. I read P & P a couple of months ago and will be reading S & S soon. Mr. Bennett is almost a side character but who can’t sympathize with his plight. Although certain of his daughters are annoying, none can compare with Mr. Collins. A truly annoying man! The book’s opening line is a classic.
  10. Just finished this tonight, a novel of the Spanish Civil War, told from the Republican side, and principally written in epistolary form.
  11. I would be more impressed by the former.
  12. The Fireside baseball books are outstanding. Einstein (Charles, that is) is overlooked today.
  13. This is a rather old thread to be sure. Still go with these choices. Read Teammates a couple of years ago. Wonderful book.
  14. He also played for a few other teams but will always be a Pirate in our mind.
  15. Roberts wasn’t really an Astro that long. Dodgers counter with Newk. No contest.
  16. That’s all right: Dodgers have Sandy, more than enough to cover the above. Scott will still be scuffing the ball.
  17. Finished Going After Cacciato last week. A very unusual book. So many things to think about.
  18. Looks like you may be right. Well, it won't be the first time (nor the last, probably) that I was wrong.
  19. I read that wasn’t true and that he’s at the game.
  20. I take it that this is only a LP release.
  21. You know it when you see it.
  22. On what theory. Pitching prevails in the playoffs and LA’s SP is better. Bullpens aren’t even comparable.
  23. One of the great performances in recent memory. Three quarters of his pitches were for strikes. Excellent is two thirds. The pitching in this series has been a treat to watch.
  24. Let’s hope there is a unified Spanish team next year.
